This is a simple video of how to install vinyl siding. I know some steps are not exactly perfect but this is what I did to complete the siding on my garage and it's still in good shape.
Here are some corrections that should have been done for longevity of the siding installation.
Overlaps on the seams are a little to tight. There should be about 1 inch between the top lock separation. The siding usually will expand almost a 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch on a full panel.
I hope this video is helpful for you and thank you so much for watching.!

Gonna start putting the vinyl siding on my 10x12 work shed. Montreal weather with either the extreme heat or rain has been brutal. Thanks for the advice and always looking to support a Canadian KZfaq channel ❤❤

Thank you for explaining how to overlap the vinyl correctly. Having not done this before, it never would have occurred to me that the seams aren't visible when viewed from one angle versus another.

Greet’ns from The South of Michigan! Thank You so much for putting together such a simple, yet thorough video. It appears as though you highlighted the critical stuff and omitted a lot of filler! A lot of folks here in YT Land like to put out long vids in hopes of scoring higher view durations in their analytics. Some of us are just meat and potatoes viewers. Just give us the good stuff... And you did! Bless’ns to ya, Tedd

Good video. I like your concise but laid back approach. I do wish, however, that you had included a little more info. on the starter strip, specifically, how to install it correctly. I'm getting ready to start my first project and I understand it's important to get it level from the beginning and keep it level. Thank you.

@AverageGuyDIY 2 жыл бұрын

I appreciate the feedback! As long as the starter strip is level you will be good, keeping in mind you can make small adjustments all the way up the wall if you see something out of line.

Hmm...If the corner is damaged, it's really tough. you can probably rig up a fix of some sort. I don't mind offering some free advice. Send me a picture to my email at agdiy2021@gmail.com and I'll take a look at it.

Hey nice video, one question, I am planning to use VOX siding and this manufacturer recommends to have a ventilation gap behind the pvc, by using some vertical wood pieces. How come you naild the pvc directly over the membrane? Thx

@AverageGuyDIY 2 жыл бұрын

I think it might have something to do with the weather difference. In Nova Scotia it only gets super hot in the months of July and August the rest of the year it can be pretty brisk. If you live in a hot area applying siding might be different.

How do you (permanently) remove the bottom lap of siding? I plan on adding a 'water barrier' (foundation covering) up to the bottom of the second lap of siding. Can a starter strip be added after the fact?

Do you alternate or scatter the joints so all are not at the same place up the entire wall? How do you do that? Like wood flooring of a 3 board spacing pattern?

@AverageGuyDIY 5 ай бұрын

Yes that's the idea. It will happen automatically, just take full pieces of siding and mount them to the wall until the last one. The last one will most likely be too long so you will need to cut it. Use the cut piece to continue the wall by taking it back to the original starting place (above the fist piece you placed). This will create the pattern.

Also, use 1-3/4" siding nails nailed on the studs. After further thought , just come to Youngstown Ohio and I'll teach you the right way.

i'm going over a painted shed, do i need the backing paper? also, why didn't you show how to finish at the top?

@AverageGuyDIY 2 жыл бұрын

It's like a puzzle as you go up to the top you must cut the pieces to shape. Same with around the windows and any other protruding objects. And actually I had a shed and we didn't use any Tyvek wrap at all. I just nailed the siding right to it. Honestly it just really depends on how you want to do it. Tyvek wrap however is always best for new construction to maintain the longevity of the structure.
